Community Pediatric Asthma Service
Preparing for Your Appointment
Your first appointment with the Community Pediatric Asthma Service may be a telephone or virtual (Microsoft Teams) appointment before we ask you to attend a face-to-face appointment.
Before your appointment, we will send you an information package, either by mail or email, whichever you choose. If you did not receive this package, call us at 403-943-9139.
Telephone Appointment
- The good news about a telephone or virtual appointment is that you can have other family members or caregivers join the call. Just have their phone number(s) handy when we call you.
